Answer:

Selling Price = £776

Step-by-step explanation:

Costing price = £800

Discount = 3% of 800

=> 3/100 × 800

=> 3×8

= £ 24

Selling Price = COSTING PRICE - DISCOUNT

Selling price = 800-24

Selling price = £776

3% = 800/ 100 = 8, 8x3= 24

800-24 = 776

£776

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is a fact: Islam is an Abrahamic monotheistic religion teaching that Muhammad is a messenger of God. It is the world's second-largest religion with 1.9 billion followers, or 24.9% of the world's population, known as Muslims. Muslims make up a majority of the population in 47 countries

TODAYTHIS WEEKCREDITS$Patricia was setting up a room with tables for an event. The room had9 maple tables, 10 poplar tables, 5 c

prohojiy [21]

As in each table can seat 8 people and the probability you need to find is about the first person you can ignore this data.

Probability that the first person to enter the room will be randomly seated at a maple table:

$P(maple)=\frac{#maple\text{ }tables}{#total\text{ }tables}$

#maple tables: 9

# total tables: 9 +10 +5 +7=31

$P(maple)=\frac{9}{31}$ Then, the probability that the first person to enter the room will be randomly seated at a maple table is 9/31

How do you find the limit?

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi! Whenever you find a limit, you first directly substitute x = 5 in.

$\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{x^2-6x+5}{x^2-25}}\\

\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{5^2-6(5)+5}{5^2-25}}\\

\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{25-30+5}{25-25}}\\

\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{0}{0}}$

Hm, looks like we got 0/0 after directly substitution. 0/0 is one of indeterminate form so we have to use another method to evaluate the limit since direct substitution does not work.

For a polynomial or fractional function, to evaluate a limit with another method if direct substitution does not work, you can do by using factorization method. Simply factor the expression of both denominator and numerator then cancel the same expression.

From x²-6x+5, you can factor as (x-5)(x-1) because -5-1 = -6 which is middle term and (-5)(-1) = 5 which is the last term.

From x²-25, you can factor as (x+5)(x-5) via differences of two squares.

After factoring the expressions, we get a new Limit.

$\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x\to 5}\frac{(x-5)(x-1)}{(x-5)(x+5)}}$

We can cancel x-5.

$\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x\to 5}\frac{x-1}{x+5}}$

Then directly substitute x = 5 in.

$\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x\to 5}\frac{5-1}{5+5}}\\

\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x\to 5}\frac{4}{10}}\\

\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x\to 5}\frac{2}{5}=\frac{2}{5}}$

Therefore, the limit value is 2/5.

L’Hopital Method

I wouldn’t recommend using this method since it’s too easy but only if you know the differentiation. You can use this method with a limit that’s evaluated to indeterminate form. Most people use this method when the limit method is too long or hard such as Trigonometric limits or Transcendental function limits.

The method is basically to differentiate both denominator and numerator, do not confuse this with quotient rules.

So from the given function:

$\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{x^2-6x+5}{x^2-25}}$

Differentiate numerator and denominator, apply power rules.

Differential (Power Rules)

$\displaystyle \large{y = ax^n \longrightarrow y\prime= nax^{n-1}$

Differentiation (Property of Addition/Subtraction)

$\displaystyle \large{y = f(x)+g(x) \longrightarrow y\prime = f\prime (x) + g\prime (x)}$

Hence from the expressions,

$\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{\frac{d}{dx}(x^2-6x+5)}{\frac{d}{dx}(x^2-25)}}\\

\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{\frac{d}{dx}(x^2)-\frac{d}{dx}(6x)+\frac{d}{dx}(5)}{\frac{d}{dx}(x^2)-\frac{d}{dx}(25)}}$

Differential (Constant)

$\displaystyle \large{y = c \longrightarrow y\prime = 0 \ \ \ \ \sf{(c\ \ is \ \ a \ \ constant.)}}$

Therefore,

$\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{2x-6}{2x}}\\

\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{2(x-3)}{2x}}\\

\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{x-3}{x}}$

Now we can substitute x = 5 in.

$\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{5-3}{5}}\\

\displaystyle \large{ \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{2}{5}}=\frac{2}{5}$

Thus, the limit value is 2/5 same as the first method.

Notes:

If you still get an indeterminate form 0/0 as example after using l’hopital rules, you have to differentiate until you don’t get indeterminate form.
